Great truck

I recently purchased a 2011 gmc serria 1500 sle. This truck has so far been great. I have averaged 17 mpgs and get around 20-22 on the Hwy. Haven't had a chance to test it's towability, but the performance thus far is great. Has good acceleration power when needed. Very comfortable in both front and rear seats and it fits a rear facing car seat without causing comfort restraints for anyone sitting in the front.

Love it!

I have drove a lot of pick up trucks at work, all types, but never a GMC Sierra. When looking for a pick up I test drove everything and fell in love with the Sierra. Not 1 regret.

The best investment I have ever made in a vehicle

I purchased my first truck and in the process of shopping I looked at several different models and styles. I settled on a 2011 GMC Sierra Z60 and I could not be happier. The truck allows me room for my work equipment as well as my family when we travel. The interior is very stylish so this vehicle is not only for business but pleasure as well. I loved this truck when I saw it and now that I am driving it, my love continues to grow as it meets every one of my personal needs in a vehicle and more!

Our Experience

We needed this vehicle to pull an RV. It certainly meets all our standards. It has all the bells and whistles and probably more than we will need, to fit our needs. Our dealer was super nice and met all our expectations.!

Best Automotive purchase yet

Had it for 70k so far, only problem was a transmission dipstick that cracked. It was recalled, so it was taken care of immediately free of charge. Great truck.

Mr. Leroy Cole

Have owned this pickup for 3 years and have had no problems. It has performed better than expected and I could not be more pleased with it.
